Live Life

If you're reading this, you're most likely living life (as far as I am aware). But how are you living your life? There's so many one-liners on how to live life. These include:
"Carpe Diem": Live life like it's your last. That's just ridiculous.
"Live life for how you want to be remembered for" What do you want your obituary to say? What will a biography/film about you be like?
"Live life to the fullest" What if I become too full from it like after eating a feast.
"Live life like you're invincible" Not everyone can be Superman.
"Expect the unexpected"... Come on!
"The purpose of life is life of purpose."
"YOLO"- You only live one. Unfortunately this became something people used.
My favorite of all: "Get Rich or Die Tryin'". Thanks 50! (That's so much cooler verbally than in text)
Here is a list of more quotes. Reading these provoke thought and makes you wonder in what context did they say it in.
While every single one of those have its merits at one point or another, it's probably not wise to live by just one of these or even several of them. "Life's like a box of chocolate, you never know what you'll get." You can't prepare for your entire life; it can end in an instant. But you can't fear death to the point where life is dull or even meaningless. On the other-hand, you can't live like your in a Hollywood action movie everyday. Life can be finding a balance of those two for them to complement each other.
With so the unlimited amount of items that we use and see on a daily basis, it becomes normal/habitual. But if you really think about things, it can bring you to a state of awe. I look a can of tennis balls and wonder the process of manufacturing it, the history of the tennis ball, the history of tennis, and so on. Sometimes it's good to dismiss the astonishment of what technology we have; it allows for even more advancement. But at times it's good to be bewildered; it gives you a feeling of there are things much larger than you.
What's your prospective?
I want to leave you with a quote: "Live and embrace life"
Donate blood, save a life.
